Dog Walkers in Chartley, MA

“Stephanie is amazing, so reliable and trustworthy plus my dog Happy loves her too!!”

“Very kind and great with our dog! This was our first time using Rover and Miriam made it a great experience. Will be asking for her services again for sure!”

“Jenna is absolutely fantastic! 😀 She has been an exceptional walker for our dog Ellie. She came to meet me and Ellie before we started Rover walks, which was a great way to get to know her and introduce them to each other. They got along immediately and Jenna asked thoughtful questions to get to know Ellie and her routine and habits. Jenna is also very reliable and keeps me updated about how walks go and anything noteworthy (or fun!) about Ellie's behavior or experiences. She has a genuine connection with Ellie and Ellie gets SO excited when she comes to pick her up for a walk. Jenna has also gone above and beyond by working with Ellie on command training during their walks. All this to say, Jenna is awesome and we're lucky to have found her through Rover. I'd highly recommended her to anyone seeking a caring professional for their furry family members! 🐾”

“Jerry does a great job taking care of my Lola. He makes sure she’s well taken care of. Jerry is responsive to my messages if there are any questions or concerns.”

“We are so happy to have found Ryan to help us with our dog on a weekly basis. He is very dependable and never fails to tire out our dog while we are away. Thank you so much for your help Ryan! We cannot recommend him enough.”

“I can't say enough good things about Patricia! She managed my two black labs beautifully - and that is a feat with them being energetic, headstrong and 80+ lbs each! Getting her daily report cards is so fun”

“Raven is absolutely amazing! You will never meet a more dedicated, friendly, kind, and thorough person who will not only prioritize the health and safety of your animals, but also give you peace of mind at every turn. I first met Raven in 2015 when I needed a sitter for a absolute unit of a Saint Bernard named Basil while I was out of town for two weeks arranging my grandmother's funeral. As a one-year-old overly playful Saint Bernard, Basil needed frequent attention, several walks, and had a mouthy problem of wanting to nibble and chew on basically anything her big old head could reach. Raven not only ensured she got the love and attention she needed, but sent me frequent updates making a VERY difficult time in my life a lot less stressful. Ever since then Raven has been my go-to sitter and walker for all of the animals in my life. I truly cannot recommend them enough.”

“Shawn was amazing! We had to find a dog walker last minute and, thankfully, Shawn took on the task of taking care of our baby while we were away. He kept us updated with Titan and the pictures were proof that Titan was completely comfortable with him! I will definitely use him again!”

“Caitlyn was able to fill in for us when our regular dog walker was unavailable. She had great communication, was on time and provided us with plenty of pictures of our pups during her visits. I wouldn’t hesitate to book her again!”

About: I’ve taken care of animals my whole life. Originally thought I wanted to be a vet but after I fell in love with my first rescue dog I realized my passion for animals was meant for something else. Went to law school and was voted most likely to save the animals. I’m a classic fur mom who loves her babies more than anything I work during the week but on weekends and holidays I am usually free. I would love to spend this extra time with your fur baby I would love to care for your pet in your home. I have often done drop in care services for friends and family who have needed them.

“I was given Serena’s information from a friend last August when I was going away and needed someone to watch my Chocolate Lab puppy. My dog took to her immediately upon meeting her and Serena loved her too. I’ve had the best experience with Serena, even better than having my sister dogsit. Serena stayed at my house for 11 days straight, taking amazing care of my girl and the house! Couldn’t be happier with the care she gives.”

“Lisa is the best. She was very attentive and flexible with our dog Reggie, who can be a bit of a handful sometimes. We'll definitely be in touch with Lisa again soon!”

About: I’ve had both dogs and cats all my life! Recently, I’ve been learning the ins and outs of training puppies, and the importance of it in their early development! Though most of my experience is around cat care, I’ve been learning a lot around feeding, potty training, and grooming dogs thanks to my partner’s golden retriever-lab mix. I’m wonderful at following directions, and really love the company dogs offer. As a college student that loves the help puppies give to my homework—I’d love the honor of watching your pup. I’m a university student, so I’m free most of the time for house sitting and taking care of pets! My schedule works perfectly with watching over and feeding any dogs or cats that may need some care, since I mainly have classes two days of week. Homework is also much better with company! My own cat, Raven, loves helping me out with schoolwork. I live in a dorm at the moment, so I can’t offer boarding, but it just makes me more happy to come to you! Growing up with both cats and dogs has taught me that all animals have boundaries. The best thing way to build a relationship with them is to respect that—cat, dog, or ferret, even. I want to ensure that they feel comfortable with me. It makes walking, playing, and feeding time run smoother!

“Catie is the best dog sitter ever! Friendly, trustworthy, and reliable! She has cared for my dogs multiple times while I am away on vacation. She is so great with them and very knowledgeable in their needs, moods, and temperament. You won’t find anyone better!”

“I highly recommend Brandon when it comes to my pets care! He is very responsible, trustworthy, and friendly. It’s very clear that he loves animals!”

“Cierra was so great for walking Henry & Trevor! She was a pleasure to work with, the dogs were very happy and we got lovely pictures of them every day!”

“Nicole has been great with our dog Benji! She walks him twice a week and he has warmed up to her very quickly. She’s very caring and attentive and communicative! Highly recommend!”

About: I have owned dogs since I was a little kid. I have trained my own dogs. I went to a high school where we were taught about different breeds of dogs (grooming needs, exercise needs etc).

There are also a few dog parks nearby. My husband and kids have a lot of love to give to animals. My dog is great, well behaved and so playful!
